Rebirth and Marriage: I am the Mistress of the Palace

Chapter 231: The Xin Family's Massacre

"I got pregnant with this baby after much difficulty. Do you know how many deadly medicines I drank for this child? Humph, you men don't understand this feeling."

Xiao Qingxi raised his eyebrows: "Besides, our palace is so big, can't it be that we can't afford to support me and my child? Mother has already promised me that no matter what decision I make, she will support me and my child for life!"

Xiao Qingyuan shook his head: "It's no problem for the palace to raise you and the child, but that's not what I'm talking about. What I'm talking about is what will happen to the child in the future? Will he not be criticized? Will the Huo family snatch the child from you?"

"It would be fine if the Huo family was a small family, but they are not. If you really give birth to a child, it won't be Huo Yunzhou who will come to visit, but General Huo and Madam Huo."

Xiao Qingxi paused: "I...I haven't thought about it that much, I just want this child too much."

Princess Ning hugged her daughter and said, "The Huo family is not a small family. Could it be that our Ning Palace is a small family? Huo Yunzhou was the first to let Qingxi down. I want to see if General Huo and Madam Huo have the nerve to snatch the child away!"

When Xiao Qingxi heard this, he immediately nodded: "That's right, let's see if the Huo family has the nerve to snatch the child!"

Shen Wantang listened quietly at the side. She finally understood why Xiao Qingxi had such an outgoing personality. It turned out that it was all because of the princess's pampering. No matter what Xiao Qingxi did, Princess Ning supported her unconditionally, so she had no scruples in what she said or did.

Having lived two lives, Shen Wantang never envied anyone because she lived well on her own.

But now, she really envied Xiao Qingxi. With a mother like Princess Ning, she could live a carefree life. Her biggest sorrow now was that her husband wanted to take a concubine. She felt that her husband did not love her enough.

After hearing what the two of them said, Xiao Qingyuan didn't say anything more. Although he still felt that it was inappropriate for his sister to hide the secret from Huo Yunzhou, one was his own sister and the other was his brother-in-law, so it was obvious which was more important.

Princess Ning had already started instructing Nanny Kang to give Xiao Qingxi more nutritious food to help him build up his body.

As Shen Wantang listened to her talk more and more, she seemed to be feeding Xiao Qingxi into a fat man. Finally, she couldn't help but said, "Mother, food and medicine should be used in moderation. Princess, you only need to take some daily supplements. If you take too much, I'm afraid you won't have a good baby in the future."

Xiao Qingxi immediately glared at her: "What do you care! You don't really think you are the master of the palace, do you? You have to control me even if I take some supplements? The money of the entire palace has nothing to do with you. How many good things I eat, do you have to feel bad for me?"

"Xier."

Princess Ning patted her hand gently and said, "How can you talk to your sister-in-law like that? Can't you hear that she is doing this for your own good?"

"I didn't hear anything at all!"

Aunt Kang smiled and said, "My princess, you don't understand. The Crown Prince's wife really said this for your own good. Many people think that after pregnancy, you need to take a lot of supplements so that the child will be strong and healthy. But if you do this, the child will be very big, and it will be difficult to give birth during delivery. This is very dangerous."

Xiao Qingxi didn't listen to anything others said, but she trusted Nanny Kang very much. When Nanny Kang spoke, she was stunned.

She looked at Shen Wantang: "I didn't expect you to be such a good person. But you've never given birth to a child, how do you know all this?"

Of course it was because I had seen many such examples when investigating and solving cases in my previous life.

"I heard it from the old people before."

Princess Ning looked at Shen Wantang and couldn't help but say, "Tang'er is the most stable and proficient in medicine. How about letting you take care of Xi'er from now on? What do you think?"

Without waiting for Shen Wantang to speak, Xiao Qingxi immediately refused: "Mother, I don't want her to care. I don't trust her! I want the imperial physician!"

"Xi'er, didn't I tell you that your sister-in-law's medical skills are amazing? She cured my headache for me. Even the imperial doctors are not as good as her."

"Maybe she is just a blind cat that has caught a dead mouse. Why should mother trust her so much? She is an outsider and she is not on good terms with me. I dare not let her take care of me. Otherwise, if she poisons the food I eat, I will be finished, right?"

Shen Wantang suddenly smiled and said, "Princess, I won't poison you. However, I don't have enough experience in keeping a baby. My mother trusts me so much, but I can't be so arrogant. I'd better ask the imperial physician to take care of the princess. The imperial physician is experienced and much more reliable than me."

She is not a fool. How could she really take on such a difficult task? Isn't this just asking for trouble?

Even if Xiao Qingxi was willing, she would not agree, otherwise if Xiao Qingxi lost the child, she would be blamed.

Not to mention that she knew that Xiao Qingxi didn't keep the child in her previous life, even if she didn't know, she would not have accepted such a task just to honor her mother-in-law.

She could put aside the past and help Xiao Qingxi to the best of her ability, but she couldn't take care of Xiao Qingxi all the time. She wasn't going to be taken advantage of to such an extent.

Princess Ning didn't say anything else. After all, she herself knew that it was a bit unreasonable to make this request.

She just loved her daughter too much and wanted to hire a miracle doctor to take care of her daughter every day. After all, the imperial physician could not follow her all the time. Shen Wantang was a family member, and a woman, so it would be much more convenient for her to take care of Xiao Qingxi.

But Shen Wantang herself had never been pregnant or given birth, so it was inappropriate to ask her to take care of the pregnant Xiao Qingxi.

"I was confused. Tang'er is right. Let's call the imperial physician! Also, Nanny Kang must be alert from now on. Everything she eats and uses must pass through your hands. You must take good care of Xi'er."

Nanny Kang responded respectfully, "Don't worry, Princess. I saved it."

That night, Princess Ning slept with her daughter.

Early the next morning, Huo Yunzhou came again.

He went to Xiao Qingxi's yard and was quickly driven out, then he went to Xiao Qingyuan's yard.

Shen Wantang didn't care about these things, because thirteen members of the Xin family disappeared mysteriously. This big case finally came to light after Xin Huailin returned from the northwest battlefield.

At present, this case has spread throughout the capital.

On the night of Shen Wantang's wedding, Nanny Jin, who was sent by her stepmother Qi, tried to interfere in her affairs by taking advantage of her seniority. She shocked Nanny Jin with just two words, making her behave herself from then on and never dare to set foot in Wutong Garden again.

These two words are "embroidered green".

Xiu Lu was a maid in the Shen family. Her original name was not Xiu Lu, but was changed to this name by Qi after she entered the Shen family.

Xiu Lu's original name was Xin Dong'er.

Just a few days after she entered the Shen family, she was killed by Nanny Jin's son.

Along with Xiu Lu, all her relatives were killed.

Except for her brother Xin Huailin who was conscripted to fight in the northwest and survived, there was no one left in the Xin family.
